Lloyd Parker, FSU’s bruising 6.2, 195 pound, defensive halfback, has signed an undisclosed fig ure contract with the Den ver Broncos of the Amer ican Football Associa tion. Having received let ters from the St. Louis Cardinals, the Dallas Cowboys, the New York Giants, and the Kansas City Chiefs, the football track star still remains a bronco with the Denver Broncs. After signing as a free agent with the Broncs, the Jacksonville native was told by the Chiefs that he was supposed to have been drafted by them in the 16th round. Parker should be a boon to the Denver club. He is not only rugged, but has tremendous speed. On the Jacksonville track club, the booming sprint er recorded a time of 9.8 in the hundred yard dash. He bettered his mark to 9.6 as an FSU Bronc cinderman and anchored the winning 440 sprint re lay team to phenomenal success. In four years of high school football, Lloyd was a defensive halfback and a tugging tonnage fullback. He continued the fullback chore at FSU for three years, then went back to defense in his senior year.
